Rating:  - Great stuff
I did not check with the tape version, so I did not really know whether it's true or not that the DVD version was shorter than the original tape version. I did not see any evidence of cutting. Well, it's harder to cut than simply release the original version, in my opinion.

Rating: - Be Sure To Buy The VHS Version, NOT the DVD!
My wife told me about having seen this series about Leonardo Da Vinci when she was a child. It had stuck with her for over 30 years, and she dearly wanted to see it again. After doing some research on The Internet Movie Database, we determined this was the series she had seen. At first, I ordered the DVD edition. Then, I read the reviews. (I know. I did this in the wrong order.) When I read that the narrator had been cut out of the DVD version, I asked my wife about it. She told me that the ... Read More
